   R
     ↳Dependency Pair Analysis



R contains the following Dependency Pairs:

F(f(a, x), a) -> F(f(a, f(a, f(a, a))), x)
F(f(a, x), a) -> F(a, f(a, f(a, a)))
F(f(a, x), a) -> F(a, f(a, a))
F(f(a, x), a) -> F(a, a)

Furthermore, R contains one SCC.

The following remains to be proven:
Dependency Pair:

F(f(a, x), a) -> F(f(a, f(a, f(a, a))), x)


Rule:


f(f(a, x), a) -> f(f(a, f(a, f(a, a))), x)
